Turning Into Little Dogs


The puppies are having tons of fun exploring their world. They no longer weeble-wobble, but can get around and navigate their bodies well. That is when they aren't power napping!



Life is a constant state of eating, sleeping and playing. Life is good when you are a puppy. Ottie remains very tolerant of those sharp teeth.


A tired puppy is a well behaved puppy!!! A good tip for the next several months of their lives!



And then they wake up again and it starts all over.


Bite inhibition will start at 7 weeks, but in the meantime watch your fingers!!


They are having a ball interacting with the Adventure Box:

Adventure Time (video link)

It is designed to get them comfortable with being bumped from behind and introduce them to new sounds and textures. Meanwhile, their sound de-sensitization continues, much to our dismay (I am REALLY desensitized to household, traffic, construction, weather and all of the other noises at this point!)



Potty training is going well. They know where the bathroom is and make it about 80% of the time to the right area.


They are all pretty hip on snuggle time. As their play energy winds down, they start piling onto the nearest lap. It makes an excellent time for nail trims. 



At this point, they are all used to sleeping in their crate. They are quick to separate out their sleep space, though clearly, when the urge to sleep hits, it is similar to narcolepsy.


Shhhhh....it's nice and quiet. Keep tiptoeing around the house and no loud noises please.
